Omega 3 and weight gain
Common Questions and Answers about Omega 3 and weight gain
omega-3
m also taking a daily multivitamin, an omega-3 capsule, a vitamin E capsule, and occasionally Aleve or some NSAID to help with my Plantar Fasciitis. My knees have been hurting due to weight gain (went from 230-257 before I recently decided enough was enough) so that's why I started the Omega-3's.
Am I ok to continue taking these?
Same with omega-3 oils, as anti-depressants often cause weight gain and increased cholesterol, which is aided by omega 3 oils, and they also aid brain function, particularly fish oil (DHA). Fish oil is also said to help with the brain zaps some people get when they stop ssris, so it's useful to have in your system.
SSRIs are notorious for weight gain, but Prozac has less of a weight gain potential (compared to say Paxil). Your weight gain may be natural - over the course of 20 years. Or it may be the result of the Prozac. But 2-3 pounds per year to gain from an SSRI is not very much. I was on Lexapro for 2-3 years and gained nearly 40 pounds in that time.
How can I have a healthy diet and gain weight? I've tried to gain weight eating more than usual but haven't been able to, what food can I eat? Or is there a diet I could follow?

Omega 3 supplement has really helped my rosacea (red spots on face and neck) so maybe it would help you too. Started Udos oil in a smoothie a few weeks ago and can't say enough about it... in addition to my skin looking better, my appetite for snack food, sugar and alcohol have all but disappeared. I am not a huge drinker, but always seemed to want that one drink at about 5pm, and am not comfortable with any daily habit like that.
Suggest eating 3 meals a day constituency with drinking high nutrient drinks - Ensure, Boost or make milkshakes (milk, fruit, and ice cream blended) or yogurt smoothies (yogurt, fruit, and ice cream blended) 3 times a day to help you gain weight slowly. You have to constantly eat and drink the shakes daily to gain weight if you have a high metabolism. Hoped that helped you.
A good way to start the day would be oat (I add vanilla and cinnamon for some flavour) add a teaspoon of ground flax seed or a teaspoon of chia seeds to your oats, both will provide you with omega 3.
A little bit of knowledge can go a long way and all this info is readily available and I found it all very useful when switching to a vegan diet.
It would be a shame for someone so young to suffer permanent damage from being underweight.
You are correct when you stated that you are underweight for your height. Being underweight, you have to gain weight slowly. Suggest you eat 3 meals a day and try to eat a Heart Healthy diet which will give you the nutrients, vitamins and minerals your body needs, gain weight slowly, and help with possibly preventing future disease states.
The "American Journal of Clinical Nutrition" suggests that omega-3 fatty acids can and fish oil can also help you gain weight, as such supplements are calorie-dense due to the fat content and also promote increased muscle protein synthesis, which promotes muscle building.
After exercise, consume a high-calorie, high-carbohydrate recovery supplement.
Fruit has a lot of natural sugar and you really only need one serving a day and 2 or 3 servings of veggies. While you may not want to gain anymore, you probably will just because we tend to retain water later in pregnancy and your baby will still grow. You should be drinking about 100 to 130 oz of water daily. Taking in adequate sources of protein is also very important. Carbs not so much. Fish will give you lots of protein without much fat and cholesterol.
My husband and I just started going to the gym again after years and years of not exercising and not eating healthy. His main goal is to gain muscle(but not too much) and gain weight(because he is normally very thin). My main goal is to loose alot of weight(50-65lbs) and gain muscle.
He wants to start using whey and other types of supplements, but we dont know where to start or what to buy. I figure that we might both need different things, since I want to loose weight and he wants to gain.

Your age is not stated so I cannot give you a calorie amount to consume daily. Being underweight, you have to gain weight slowly. Suggest you eat 3 meals a day and try to eat a Heart Healthy diet which will give you the nutrients, vitamins and minerals your body needs, gain weight slowly, and help with possibly preventing future disease states.
